Well, the fuel filter is somewhere by the right rear brake, or so I've heard. Someone else will have to fill you in on that.

The air filters are located in the engine cover. Disconnect the air hoses by pulling them towards the front of the car, then pull the engine cover off back to front. NEVER the other way. Flip the engine cover over and locate the Torx screws on both sides. The air filters are under those covers. Remember to insert and seat them correctly. Refer to the old ones if you don't know. When putting the engine cover back on, seat it first then push down. Look for the rubber ****-looking things for where the clips go. The one clip on the front of the engine cover goes on a metal rod towards the front of the engine instead of a **** like the others. It should go on correctly if you seat the others correctly.

Also, remember the search function is your friend.

EDIT: Remember to clean out the air boxes when you take the old air filters out and keep the new ones clean. Anything that goes down the intake past the air filters goes straight into your engine.

Fuel filter is shown in this pic just right of the exhaust pipe with the hoses coming from it. This area is also covered by a peice of plastic which is removed in this pic

Edit: Whoops, nevermind.

Most of the how-to articles on this stuff is written up here on the site. Some members have taken the liberty of taking pictures for the how-to also.
